I only ever buy fresh Raspberries when these are available for 2 for $5 because I do find them to be quite expensive for the amount you get! I do wish I was able to purchase these more often because they are just sooo delicious! They are fresh and burst with juice and flavor every time I take a bite! They are perfect to eat as is or add them to baking or any other recipe or dish. Raspberries have so many health benefits and so I do purchase frozen ones when I cannot get these but they just aren't the same .. The only problem I have ever had with these is just having a few in the pack be smoshed and soft but I think that is normal no matter what type or brand you purchase and it was only ever a couple of raspberries. -

This is probably the BEST bronzer that you can pick up at a Drug Store and the price is a little bit higher than other products you could pick up there but trust me, it is definitely worth! (It also goes on sale from time to time!)
Firstly, this product smells AMAZING .. I am not entirely sure of how to describe it. It just smells very fresh and clean, unlike other cosmetic products or powders.
Secondly, it applies so nicely .. it blends easily and your skin feels so smooth afterwards. Even if you feel the actual product in the container .. it feels super smooth and soft!
Lastly, I am very pale and so I am always nervous when purchasing and applying bronzers .. I never want it to be obvious that I am wearing a bronzer and I don't want it to be too dark and unnatural. This product gives me just enough colour and shimmer that has my skin looking healthy and toned.
I have seen videos and read somewhere of people using the bronzer as a "contour" but I honestly feel as though it does not have enough pigments and isn't dark enough for a contour .. unless you were looking for a very soft and subtle look but I prefer a more rich and prominent look to my contour .. but as a regular bronzer it is perfect!

This is an amazing body moisturizer !! The texture is a light and fluid-like which absorbs quickly and effectively .. my skin never feels slippery, greasy or sticky after I apply this product but it does feel healthy, hydrated and soft. Aside from feeling great, my skin also looks greats after applying this, especially my legs and thighs. As I said, my skin looks hydrated and so it has a healthy "glow" and so I am very impressed with this.. I do prefer the Ideal Body Baume over THIS product just because the texture is thicker and I personally prefer a richer body cream.
The scent is also very nice .. I would describe it as a light and fresh perfumed powder. The scent doesn't last very long on the skin however and that would be the only thing I would like changed about this product - other than that, it is an amazing moisturizer and I will be repurchasing for myself and for others as gifts too.

Yum , I love the scent of all of the HEMPZ Body Lotions but I have noticed that the scents do not stick or stay on the skin. I only smell them for about 5-10 minutes and then the smell is gone, I even try to smell my skin right up close and I still do not smell any lingering scent which is upsetting because I really do love the scent when it is there ..
Aside from the lack of staying power, the lotion itself does leave my skin feeling very soft. I only need a few pumps as it does spread fast and easily which is fantastic because I do not feel any sticky or greasy residue ike I do with some other lotions and creams.
I probably won't buy this again though .. I have had my current pump bottle for over a year now and it is not even halfway empty. I just do not use it enough .. maybe if the scent lasted longer I would but I find myself reaching for other lotions and creams on my shelf instead.

I love using this body wash - it always leaves my skin feeling super smooth and soft.
I also really love the scent .. it is a little strong and overwhelming when you smell it right out of the bottle but it lathers into a fresh fruity and floral scent and it also lingers on my skin for hours, I always feel like I smell like Ii had just gotten out of the shower even if it had only been a few hours.
The texture of the body wash itself is also very soft to apply to your skin if you are applying it with your hands or if you are using a loofah or cloth it also lathers very nicely and feels very soft.

This product is absolutely amazing!
I started to use this product because my lips would often crack, bleed and split in the winter. Sometimes, the skin around my lips would also get severely red, dry and irritated as well. It would hurt to talk, laugh and even smile because my lips just ended up splitting .. this product has actually changed my life.
The product almost feels like a thicker (less sticky) vaseline texture and it comes out of a small tube. I usually squeeze a small amount onto my finger and then spread it over my lips and I feel almost instant relief. You also do not need to apply much because the product spreads so well over your lips and it also absorbs quickly.
One of my favourite things about this product is there is little to no taste/smell .. I have tried many products on my lips and they all have a medicinal taste/smell which was unpleasant for me. It takes a little less than a week until my lips are no longer hurting or stinging and I continue to use this product even after my lips have healed because it just works so well as a moisturizer or lip balm. I have even used this to prime my lips before applying lip liner and lipstick and it makes your lips very smooth and easier for other products to apply.

Ariana Grande released this new fragrance just a few months ago and it quickly became one of my favourites!
They called it "Sweet Like Candy' and after one spray it isn't too hard to see why ... the scent is very sweet but not "body spray" sweet , it is a more mature type of sweetness.
The fragrance doesn't have too many different layers .. it is pretty basic with hints of berries, candies and vanilla and I am able to pick up on all of these scents. I also read somewhere that it also has notes of Bergamont but I unfortnately have no been able to pick up on that scent - perhaps it is overpowered by the vanilla.
A few negatives (but not deal breakers for me) - the pompom on the bottle. When you first purchase this fragrance it will come with a white pompom thing attached to the bottle with a clip. After just a few weeks, this "white" pompom quickly becomes .. not so white. To me, this is unfortunate because the pompom really added to the cuteness and girliness of the fragrance as a whole - I think they should have created a different type of a feature to add to the bottle but it really isn't a big deal to just snap it off and toss it in the garbage .. the bottle will just look a little plain afterwards.
Another negative is the longevity of the fragrance .. this scent has very minimal staying power. With most fragrances I am able to give myself one or two sprays and I am good to go for the day .. with this, I need to spray myself MULTIPLE times just to make it last a few hours. Thankfully, this fragrance isn't terribly expensive and so I do not mind to spray myself like 10 times but I do know this may bother some other people.

This is a great air freshener - it is cute, compact and smells great! I think the scent is very fresh and crisp .. and quite honestly, my car is a disaster 99% of the time but it never smells like the mess it really is. I also believe the packaging says it only lasts up to a month and I am going on my 3rd or 4th month now and the smell is still there, however, the liquid on the inside of the freshener is nearly gone and so I know I will be out soon and need to pick up another one, but they are only roughly $3.99 per freshener and if I only need to purchase one every few months .. it is totally worth it. -

I am not entirely sure how this product is specifically designed for long hair but it seems to be doing a good job as my hair is only a few inches away from my waist..
My favourite thing about this product is the smell - its amazing! It is so fresh, crisp and the scent lingers in my hair for a few days before it begins to fade and by then it is just time to wash my hair again!
It isn't the BEST shampoo I have used on my hair but aside from the good scent, my hair does feel soft afterwards but not much more soft than it usually does and my split ends are still pretty noticeable as well. I have also noticed that while my hair is still wet, BEFORE I apply the conditioner my hair feels almost knotty, but thankfully that is corrected with the conditioner but it is still not a nice feeling while washing and lathering.

I was VERY disappointed in this mascara especially because I had read such positive reviews .. but this is actually probably one of the worst mascaras I have ever tried.
Firstly, not much product would transfer onto my lashes. I had to keep brushing my lashes over and over and it still barely looked like I had on any mascara and this also gave me no added length to my lashes at all .. I ended up going over the lashes with a different type of mascara. Maybe if the mascara was thicker in consistency it might have amounted to something on my lashes but it didn't even clump so I suppose that is a positive.
I do, however, really like the ball-type design on the end of the wand. I was able to really get into the corners of my eyes easily (too bad you couldn't see that I did) - I think that CoverGirl or any other brand, should use that ball design on a different type of mascara .. one that applies better or is a little thicker.
